"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Which is good because Bones was another fucking (but hopefully last) Pelant episode.

And also awful. I especially hated, we're in this building that Pelant could have rigged with any sort of crazy shit, so why don't we pause here and talk about getting married rather than just getting the fuck out of there.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I got about ten minutes into Bones and just gave up. I NEVER do that. Blew my mind.

And given the fact that Pelant was a sick fuck with contingency upon contingency, I would not have been strolling casually out of the building. I would have been hustling out of there and calling the bomb squad, HAZMAT and SWAT.

Yeah, that is what I meant.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

We never really came to a firm consensus about Person of Interest, did we?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

IMO, I think it is kind of the show's fault. About 80-90% of the show is (has been?) squarely procedural. But then there is the 1-2 eps a year that focus on the computer. We don't even know (really) what the computer *is*, its capabilities, and how that will drive the story.

Yes, I am completely willing to blame the show.

If it ain't broke, don't fix. Let's just leave it, and if someone posts in Boxed Set, direct them here.
